- Windows and Linux users annotating screenshots
- Worth noticing
- Deleting a numbered step automatically renumbers the remaining annotations; Windows and Linux downloads are linked alongside SHA256SUMS.
Field notes
The editing model keeps annotations editable rather than flattening them into the image; captures can be reopened later or dragged out as files. Fifteen built-in screenshot frames are described, with plain TOML files for custom ones, and the site links Windows and Linux downloads alongside SHA256SUMS. Wayland support is marked as still in progress on the homepage.
